StephenK said he THINKS Derek may have run 10.95 with the juiced E. He saw the run but couldn't remember the exact time.

WOW!!

Guess we will know soon.

A 10.9 will walk every production car on the market, except the Veyron.

i saw a video of an enzo running 11.2 in the 1/4mile. Off the line Ferraris are slow. Every SC AMG car can take a 360 or 550 in a 1/4mile drag but if you do rolling starts with the ferrari over 60mph it will win. You dont buy a Ferrari to drag with you buy it for its balance and track ability.

And how many of those are produced a year I wonder? The point is that in his E55, Derek will very likely never run into a production car that can take him. No need to be a *****. I wasnt rude to you.

Haha, you see that's the problem with posting online. You can't tell which way the post was meant to be directed. I didn't mean it in anyway like that. I hope it didn't come across like that, but I was just simply trying to think of production cars off the top of my head that ran in the 10's. As far as I know those are the only 3 My apologies.

True... Chances are unlikely. But there is a Koenig in Key Biscayne that I've seen on at least 15 occasions going back and forth from the house. Trust me it's very tempting I might even have a picture laying around on one of the cells, there is also a MC12 lurking in the neighborhood

Apology accepted, thank you. Of course there is always a possibility he will run into one of the few that can take him.
